Rootstock-dependent modulation of growth, xylem anatomy and hydraulic function in Citrus limon (L.) Burm. f. and Citrus clementina (Hort. ex Tan.)

Scientia Horticulturae
Rootstock selection profoundly influences citrus tree performance by modulating growth, biomass allocation, xylem anatomy, and hydraulic function. This study evaluated the contrasting effects of two widely used Poncirus trifoliata rootstocks, Trifoliate ...

Physiological Controls on Carbon Fluxes and Biomass Production in Miscanthus: Insights From a Process‐Based Agroecosystem Model

GCB Bioenergy, Volume 18, Issue 8, August 2026.
Miscanthus productivity is governed by interacting plant processes from phenology and canopy development to carbon assimilation. Data‐constrained simulations reveal that photosynthetic protein allocation sets productivity potential, while electron transport capacity remains a key regulator of additional productivity gains.

Carbon Stocks in Sugarcane Biomass and Their Implications on Land Use Change CO2 Balance in Brazil

GCB Bioenergy, Volume 18, Issue 8, August 2026.
This paper develops a regionalized carbon stock factor for sugarcane biomass in Brazil, showing that sugarcane cultivation can lead to net carbon removal in most municipalities. The findings improve greenhouse gas inventories and support bioenergy policies by providing more accurate, spatially resolved estimates for land use change emissions.

Miscanthus giganteus Biolistic Transformation Using the Visible RUBY Red Marker Gene to Monitor Transformation Efficiency

GCB Bioenergy, Volume 18, Issue 8, August 2026.
Genetic improvements to Miscanthus × giganteus (M×g), a high‐yielding perennial C4 bioenergy crop, are constrained by triploid sterility and clonal propagation. An efficient biolistic genetic transformation protocol for inflorescence‐derived callus using RUBY, a betalain‐based noninvasive reporter, provides opportunities for crop advancement and tools ...

Arctic plants can take up inorganic nitrogen year‐round

New Phytologist, Volume 251, Issue 4, Page 1694-1708, August 2026.
Schematic overview of year‐round, Arctic seasonal periods as used throughout the paper and their relation to the 15 repeated measuring periods (top) and the three a priori contrasts (middle) used for statistical testing of seasonality in N‐uptake. Summary Arctic tundra experiences strong climatic seasonality, with cold and long winters, but effective ...

Pollinator efficiency, rather than bee decline, explains a shift to hummingbird pollination in tropical montane forests

New Phytologist, Volume 251, Issue 4, Page 2237-2247, August 2026.
Hummingbird pollination is a hallmark of American plant diversity and has long been thought to evolve in tropical mountains due to declining bee activity. Using sister species of Costus specialized on bees (C. kuntzei) and hummingbirds (C. wilsonii), we show that this shift is not driven by reduced bee visitation with elevation, but by greater ...

Genomic forecasting for climate‐resilient fruit trees

New Phytologist, Volume 251, Issue 4, Page 1640-1653, August 2026.
Genomic offset and required evolutionary changes under climatic shifts. Summary Fruit trees – long‐lived perennial crops cultivated for their edible fruits or nuts and frequently propagated clonally – are increasingly exposed to climate extremes that threaten their productivity and survival.

Organ‐specific terpenoid responses in Tanacetum vulgare are chemotype‐dependent

Plant Biology, Volume 28, Issue 5, Page 1437-1453, August 2026.
Common tansy varieties defend differently: some boost root chemicals against soil pests, while others release stronger leaf scents against aphids. Abstract Specialized metabolites such as terpenoids are known to mediate plant defence mechanisms. However, how terpenoid diversity governs inducible chemistry across organs remains poorly understood.

Advancing the pneumatic method to assess xylem vulnerability to embolism among distinct growth forms

Plant Biology, Volume 28, Issue 5, Page 1385-1398, August 2026.
Our study shows that pneumatic vulnerability curves can be constructed across contrasting growth forms, with P50 showing the closest agreement across methods. Repeated relative water content measurements improved water potential estimation for graminoid culms. Abstract Drought‐driven plant mortality is closely linked to xylem embolism. Building useful,
